We customise our OHS strategies to suit your requirements

OHS Consulting In The Workplace

Health and safety practices are maturing from a focus on reducing workers compensation costs to delivering viable workplace wellness programs that promote staff health and happiness. Employers who have achieved excellent safety records by minimising physical, chemical and ergonomic hazards and risk of injury have used this shift as a platform to expand into wellness and prevention initiatives.

We assist our clients in fulfilling their statutory obligations and offer customised solutions that really work for the ‘people on the ground’. All of our consultants are fully qualified practicing health professionals. Their extensive knowledge of anatomy and the body’s response to work related stress creates an invaluable source of advice for injury prevention, management and rehabilitation as well as improving your company’s all round efficiency. Our OHS Consulting process is an effective way of identifying risks and developing controls in the workplace. It encourages a cooperative approach to Health and Safety while recognising the decision making role of the employer.

A study conducted with almost 30,000 employees in 15 countries showed that 64% of employees who perceive the organisation for which they work as an active promoter of health and wellness intend to stay at least five years with their companies (World Economic Forum, 2010c).
